Phil, I couldn't agree more.  In fact I'd say the whole purpose of this
forum is to share knowledge, not trade barbs.

Yeah, sure they do.  That's why they all agree so much.  For that matter,
that's why half of them write and spell as if they flunked out of English
as a Second Language.  I should really take such people ***much*** more
seriously.  After all, them being professional ME's and EE's does make
them superior as human beings.

I asked for something simple:  cordiality, and collegiality.  I don't
have to have my facts perfectly straight.  Very few of the guys here do. 
 That's why the simplest queries turn into long discussions, and I say
that's just fine.  That's the whole point, to have long discussions.

But I repeat:  the self-righteousness and the hostility are
